In Kokshetau, vigilant minors helped police prevent potentially serious consequences, reports infohub.kz.

The incident occurred on August 4 at around 7 p.m., when a call was made to the '102' hotline reporting that an unknown man was behaving aggressively and disturbing public order in one of the city's public places. According to the press service of the Akmola Regional Police Department, the nearest patrol unit was immediately dispatched to the scene.

Upon arrival, officers found that the callers were minors who had not remained indifferent to the situation. They pointed out the offender to the police and explained that the man, being heavily intoxicated, was aggressive and even raised his hand against his female companion.

During the arrest, the man behaved provocatively: he loudly used profanity, ignored lawful police demands, and refused to undergo a medical examination. He was issued an administrative citation for disobeying a lawful order of a law enforcement officer. His companion, who according to the medical examination was also moderately intoxicated, was held administratively liable for appearing in a public place while intoxicated.

After being taken to the temporary detention facility, the detainee continued his unlawful actions by breaking a sink in the facility. For damaging property, he was charged with petty hooliganism. Additionally, the court decided to open a criminal case against the man for insulting a government official. He is currently held in the temporary detention facility.

As it later turned out, on that day the man and woman had officially registered their marriage. After the ceremony, the couple decided to celebrate, but alcohol consumption led to a conflict that ended with police intervention.

The Akmola Regional Police Department noted that it was the children's timely call that allowed them to promptly stop the unlawful actions and possibly prevent more serious consequences. It was also established that the detainee had recently been released from prison, where he had served a sentence for a previous criminal offense.
